Our Planet ~ Coastal Seas

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=r9PeYPHdpNo

'Our #coastal #seas are a #rich #community of #plants and #animals #working #together, all of which are #vital to the #health of our #planet and #humanity. From fearsome #sharks to lowly #urchins, 90 percent of #marine #creatures live in coastal #waters. #Protecting these #habitats is a battle humanity must win. Coastal seas count for 7% of our #ocean, yet they are responsible for 95% of the #world’s marine #production – these are our #planet’s #fishing #grounds. Despite their importance to humanity, few are protected. Yet wherever effective #protection #exists, #life bounces back in #huge #abundance. The #wildlife will #thrive, and we will catch more #fish.'

It’s Happening Now But People Don’t See It ~ Roger Waters on Challenging Authority

~ Happy Birthday, Roger ~ September 6,1943

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=nanCWrRR-xw

A #revolutionary and #powerful #speech from #musician and #PinkFloyd band member #RogerWaters on challenging #authority and #societal #change. This is not a drill. "We are all #brothers and #sisters under the skin and above it . . . it's super important that we #stop #lobbing #bombs over the top of the #wall and start trying to dismantle it, so that we can say 'hi' to whoever is on the other side, whether the #divide is #religious or #nationalistic or #political or #economic." ~ #Roger #Waters #humanrights #humanity
